Hey- I have the same question. I bought this 96 Cherokee and it has it's issues. I have no remote for the door locks and everytime I lock the doors I have to unlock the hatch before unlocking the other doors, otherwise the alarm will go off until I unlock the hatch. Now it has a new issue; twice this week the alarm has gone off. Once at 4am and the next time at 3am. It is not impossible that someone could have messed with my Jeep...twice in a week...without success....but it is unlikely. However, it seemes just as unlikely that the alarm system is failing, while I am out of town and twice in a week and both at wee hours in the morning!?!? Any thoughts?? jenifre gmail.com

Under the back seat driver side is wiring harness with a purple wire with a yellow stripe. Ground this wire and it it will bypass the alarm system (horn will honk 3 times)and let you start your car. I have not ungrounded my yet.

Close all doors and then insert your key on the door handle. lock it then unlock it as if you did not have a keyless entry system. then try it. I hope it works!
